I've noticed a similar situation with bell peppers. If I allow
customers to pick their own peppers, they agonize over their
selections, tend to buy fewer, and not buy the colors I need to move.
I remove color and size decisions by putting them in mesh bags with a
nice selection of colors but distributed to use all available peppers.
The bagged peppers seem to sell in higher volume and I come closer to
getting rid of all my peppers. Not just large ones or ones of certain
colors. It seems that putting the colors together in a bag makes them
more attractive than stacks of peppers sorted by color.
